Ndipo Yehova anandipatsa uthenga uwu nati,
3 “Mwanakomana womunhu, ava vanhu vakaisa zvifananidzo mumwoyo yavo vakaisa zvigumbuso zvakaipa pamberi pavo. Ndingavatendera kuti vatombondibvunza here?

4 Naizvozvo taura navo ugovaudza kuti, ‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Kana muIsraeri upi zvake akaisa zvifananidzo mumwoyo make uye akaisa chigumbuso chakaipa pamberi pake ndokuenda kumuprofita, ini Jehovha ndichamupindura pachangu zvinoenderana nokunamata kwake zvifananidzo zvake zvikuru.
Tsono yankhula nawo ndi kuwawuza kuti zimene akunena Ambuye Yehova: ‘Ngati Mwisraeli aliyense ayika mtima wake pa mafano ndi kuyika maso ake pa zinthu zoyipa zopunthwitsa, kenaka nʼkupita kwa mneneri, Ineyo Yehova mwini wakene ndidzamuyankha molingana ndi kuchuluka kwa mafano ake.
5 Ndichaita izvi kuti ndibatezve mwoyo yavanhu veIsraeri, ivo vakandisiya vose kuti vatevere zvifananidzo zvavo.’
Ine ndidzachita zimenezi kuti mwina nʼkukopa mitima ya anthu a Israeli, amene andisiya chifukwa cha mafano awo.’
6 “Naizvozvo uti kuimba yeIsraeri, ‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Tendeukai! Dzokai mufuratire zvifananidzo zvenyu musiye mabasa enyu ose anonyangadza!
“Nʼchifukwa chake uwawuze Aisraeli kuti Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Lapani! Siyani mafano anu ndi ntchito zanu zonse zonyansa!
7 “‘Kana muIsraeri upi zvake, kana mutorwa agere muIsraeri, akazvitsaura kubva pandiri akaisa zvifananidzo mumwoyo make uye akaisa chigumbuso chakaipa pamberi pake ndokuenda kumuprofita kunobvunza nezvangu, ini Jehovha ndichamupindura pachangu.
“‘Ngati Mwisraeli wina aliyense kapena mlendo wina aliyense wokhala pakati pa Israeli adzichotsa yekha kwa Ine ndi kuyika mtima pa mafano ake ndi kuyikanso maso ake pa zinthu zopunthwitsa ndipo kenaka nʼkupita kwa mneneri kukafunsa nzeru, Ineyo Yehova mwini wakene ndidzamuyankha.
8 Ndicharinzira chiso changu pamusoro pomunhu uyo kuti ndimurwise uye ndichamuita muenzaniso netsumo. Ndichamubvisa pakati pavanhu vangu. Ipapo muchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.
Ine ndidzalimbana naye munthu ameneyo ndipo ndidzamusandutsa chitsanzo ndi chisudzo. Ndidzamuchotsa pakati pa anthu anga. Pamenepo inu mudzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova.
9 “‘Uye kana muprofita akanyengerwa kuti ataure chiprofita, ini Jehovha ndini ndamunyengera, uye ndichatambanudza ruoko rwangu pamusoro pake ndigomuparadza pakati pavanhu veIsraeri.
“‘Ndipo ngati mneneri anyengedwa nanenera, Ine Yehova ndiye ndamunyenga mneneri ameneyo, ndipo ndidzatambasula dzanja langa kumukantha ndi kumuwononga pakati pa anthu anga Aisraeli.
10 Vachatakura mhosva yavo ivo, muprofita achava nemhosva zvakangoenzana naiye auya kuzomubvunza.
Iwo adzalangidwa chifukwa cha kulakwa kwawo. Chilango cha wodzafunsira nzeru kwa mneneri chidzafanana ndi chilango cha mneneriyo.
11 Ipapo vanhu veIsraeri havangazotsaukizve vachibva kwandiri kana kuzvisvibisazve nezvivi zvavo zvose. Vachava vanhu vangu, uye ini ndichava Mwari wavo, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.’”
Ndidzachita zimenezi kuti Aisraeli asasocherenso kundisiya Ine ndi kuti asadziyipitsenso ndi machimo awo. Adzakhala anthu anga, ndipo Ine ndidzakhala Mulungu wawo, akutero Ambuye Yehova.’”
12 Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,
